IM Directs House of Cards in Episode 3, Season 2

Illustrated Man was hired to do second unit directing for Episode 3, Season 2 of the Netflix Original Series House of Cards, starring Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright. IM used its 4K Digital Cinemetography camera, the SONY FS-700 to shoot for the Emmy and Golden Globe winning drama.

In addition to providing location scouting services, Illustrated Man also delivered a computer-generated fly-through of locations, which included specific camera elevations, required for these shots.

After working with the L.A. production office, Illustrated Man helped recommend a particular location, and shot from the rooftop bar 360, located atop the Hyatt Hotel downtown. A specially-built platform was brought in, to accomodate the camera and crew for the shoot.

The Muny TV Commercial

IM produced a film-quality high-definition television commercial for the Muny. The spot was shot in in genuine slow motion (over-cranked), and the footage was captured at rates almost double to those used in the most recent Star Wars film that used High-Def cameras to capture all of its on-screen actors.
